Cats Eyes Watering A Lot

First there can be the presence of a watery discharge coming from your cats eyes.

Cats eyes watering a lot. Cats are very curious animals. One of the most common causes of eye injuries is scratches during fights. Eye injuries such as corneal ulcers a scratch a blow to the face.

I would guess probably some sort of infection especially if hes newly adopted from a shelter. Often the third eyelid will also be present or even cloudiness of the eye. In the worst-case scenario your cat can become blind.

My cats eyes are sunken and hes dropped allot of weight. Cats develop watery eyes for a wide range of reasons including upper respiratory infections corneal injuries blocked tear ducts and more. I would do a quick vet appt and he might get some eye drops.

The facial anatomy of brachycephalic breeds may play a role in this condition. Watery eyes in your cat are generally a symptom of another condition rather than a disease in itself. If you notice tear stains on their face and irritated or inflamed skin your cat has excessive tearing.

Epiphora or excessive tearing from the eyes can be a sign of tear duct blockage or more serious eye problems. This can be caused by anything from allergies to blocked tear ducts to allergies. Something stuck in the eye such as a grass seed.

Conjunctivitis can also be the first sign of cat flu. Eye and eyelid lumps. Joined Mar 26 2010 42 Posts.
